Wobbly lines with Surface Pen

[kmoo]

Hello. Why do my diagonal lines look wobbly in Photoshop? Have I really just dropped thousands of dollars on a machine that was marketed to artists that is virtually impossible to draw with?
Thanks!

I'm afraid this is typical to digital inking. The iPad Pro most likely has it too. I understood that either the SB2 or the Surface Studio doesn't have it that bad

Thanks, Plantje. Unfortunately it's not typical in my experience. I have had two Thinkpad tablet PCs in the past, both which have the Wacom digitizer, and I have never had this problem before. The problem is with this particular machine. It's crazy that my drawing experience was ten times better on my older machines...

If it is that much worse I would take it back

Thanks again. It is that much worse, but I think it is too late for me to return it. I'm really looking for clarity. Is it normal for the lines to look like this, and if so, can I expect there to be a fix for it in the future? This machine was marketed as the ideal artist's tool, I would hope that the manufacturers would be looking to fix such a huge issue.

What device do you have?

Does this help?

Did you by any chance draw the lines in a slow motion? I noticed on my Surface 3 that there is a huge difference between the speed with which I draw a line.

If you have a SP 2017 with the new pen it should be better:

And how about this one?

Just wondering how you are doing. Still having this issue?

It seems to be a hardware thing... sorry
